Wild Lettuce and Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, Clarithromycin

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, Clarithromycin and Wild Lettuce in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Wild Lettuce safety at a glance

Wild Lettuce overall Use caution Limited human safety data exist, and high doses have been linked to side effects.
Pregnancy Avoid Not enough safety information is available, so it is best avoided during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Avoid There is no reliable safety data, so avoid use while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

Pharmacist analysis

Studies are few and far between, but the only reported interactions with wild lettuce are with sedative drugs as wild lettuce is purported to have sedative effects.

This would include drugs like antihistamines, opioids, and benzodiazepines. These are detailed on our individual drug interaction pages.

Additionally, as wild lettuce may contain hyoscyamine, an anticholinergic drug, it should be used cautiously with other anticholinergic drugs due to the increased risk of side effects.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, Clarithromycin

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, Clarithromycin is filed under 14 classifications — including proton pump inhibitors (ppis), macrolide antibiotics, cytochrome p450 1a2 (cyp1a2) inducers. Wild Lettuce has documented interactions with 2 drug classes — the most serious being anticholinergic drugs (moderate) and cns depressants (moderate) — and none of Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin, Clarithromycin’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

About Wild Lettuce

What is Wild Lettuce?

Wild Lettuce
  • Insomnia and trouble sleeping
  • Anxiety and restlessness
  • Pain relief
  • Cough and respiratory symptoms
  • Muscle spasms

Wild lettuce is a traditional herb used mainly for sleep, anxiety, and pain, but solid human research supporting these uses is very limited. Because its safety is not well studied, it should be used cautiously, avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding, and discussed with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Lactuca virosa · Asteraceae · Leaves, dried milky sap (latex/lactucarium), and aerial parts · Capsules, tablets, dried herb, tea, tincture, extract, and smoking/vaping preparations

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Wild Lettuce is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Wild Lettuce record says about it on its own.

Wild Lettuce: dosing

There is no well-established or standardized dose for wild lettuce. The right amount can vary widely depending on the product, form (tea, capsule, tincture, or extract), and how it is prepared.Because a safe and effective dose has not been clearly defined in research, the best approach is to follow the directions on the product label and start with the lowest suggested amount.
